An article at LiveScience lists the following reasons why one should take up meditation:
- Reduces pain perception
- Improves your sex life
- Helps avoid mental traps that drag out problem solving
- Boosts mental toughness against the debilitating effects of some emotional events
- Helps you keep your cool
- Increases focus
- Bulks up the brain
Where is spiritual enlightenment or illumination?
I guess science hasn’t gone that far yet.

About Marc of Contemplative Pathways
Marc teaches contemplative meditation in the context of
contemporary mysticism. His understanding of the mystical life is rooted in study, practice, unfold ment, realization and experience, in the course of which he has received the gifts of spiritual discernment and transmission. His teaching work meaningfully shifts consciousness in a Truth student through the process and alchemy of
mystical transformation.
Marc facilitates the mystical teachings under the style of
Contemplative Pathways, enabling others to embark on the spiritual journey by learning the Truth teaching and living the mystical life. He has been conducting classes and contemplation meetings in the San Francisco Bay Area usually in a classroom, lecture, workshop or group meeting setting, for over fifteen years.
His methodology of instruction is divinely inspired and firmly rooted in pure, authentic mysticism. His approach to the mystical life is essentially nondenominational, nonsectarian, culturally inter faith, spiritually transreligious, and definitively unitive and nondualistic. His other contributions to worldwide spiritual awakening and the global contemplative movement include spiritual mentoring and spiritual healing practice.
Within the context of the great shift in consciousness now occurring all over the planet, Marc’s work presently focuses on individual and collective spiritual transformation and healing through the practice of contemplation or meditation, as the vehicle for transcendence and ascension to the higher dimensions of the Spirit.
He remains firmly committed to the vision of a global spiritual awakening and the divine promise of humanity’s mystical illumination.
